1.1 INTRODUCTION
The CiM-25 is a low-cost solution for providing an Internet Protocol (IP) Monitor and
Control (M&C) interface for existing Comtech EF Data satellite modems, RF frequency
converters and solid-state power amplifiers. The CiM-25 provides a custom proxy
interface between the IP world and the equipment’s existing serial remote control
interface.
The CiM-25 provides powerful equipment management tools via the uses of HTTP
protocol, SNMP v2c Protocol, and Telnet Protocol. Wrapped around these industry
standard protocols is a system of account access and IP security control features to
safeguard equipment from unwanted intrusions. The CiM-25 brings customer support to a
new level by providing SMTP Protocol to facilitate automated, direct E-mail to Comtech
EF Data’s Customer Support Center.
The CiM-25 is packaged in a very compact 4.3” x 1.7” x 0.8”. The unit can be powered
directly by the attached equipment or via an external AC/DC adapter. The CiM-25
requires less than 1 of watt power.

2.3 CONNECTING CIM-25 TO EQUIPMENT
The CiM-25 is designed to connect directly (no cabling) to supported Comtech EF Data
Modems, Frequency Converters, or Solid State Power Amplifiers using the equipment’s
9-pin remote control interface port. The CiM-25 interfaces to this equipment via a RS232 interface at a baud rate of 19200 bps and a data format of 8-N-1. Therefore, it is
necessary to first select the RS-232 interface type on the interfacing equipment prior to
connecting the CiM-25 to said equipment. Some equipment automatically selects a unit
address of 0 when RS232 is chosen while other equipment require the user to configure
the unit remote control address to 1. In addition, on equipment that supports multiple data
formats the user must select 8-N-1 format.
2.3.1 POWERING THE CIM-25
The CiM-25F can accept power either on pin 4 of the DB9 interface to the equipment or
via the power jack located next to the RJ-45 connector. An optional AC/DC adapter can
be purchased to provide the CiM-25F power via the power-jack connector.
The CiM-25M accepts power via the power jack located next to the RJ-45 connector. An
AC/DC adapter must be purchased to provide power to the CiM-25M.
All CDM-550, CDM-600, and CDM-600L modems shipped from the factory after June
1, 2001 have been modified to supply the 5 Vdc signal on pin 4. All units shipped from
the factory prior to this date DO NOT provide the 5 Vdc on pin 4. A field modification
kit is available and can be purchased for CDM-550, CDM-600, and CDM-600L modems
shipped prior to this date
There is no ON/OFF switch for the CiM-25.
2.3.2 CIM-25 CONNECTORS
There are three connectors located on each CiM-25. Each is defined below:
RJ-45 - 10base T Ethernet interface.
DB9 – RS-232 equipment interface (either male or female)

Installation CD/CIM25600L.IOM
Each CiM-25 unit is programmed in the factory to provide a custom proxy interface to
one of Comtech EF Data’s previously defined equipments. This means that a CiM25/600L that is loaded to interface a CDM-600L Modem to the IP world will not operate
with any other piece of Comtech EF Data equipment, unless the personality is changed
via a flash upload.
However every CiM-25, independent of personality, shares a large number of common
features. For instance, all CiM-25 units provide the same degree of security features,
network protocols, and administration features. The following sections will provide a
detailed description of all the features available for a specific CiM-25 (i.e. CiM-25/600L
with CDM-600L Modem). Those areas that are common to all CiM-25 units will be
expounded upon and delineated. The areas that are specific to the individual personality
(i.e. equipment parameter control) will only be briefly covered since these are already
covered in detail in the individual equipment operator manuals.
3.2 ADMINISTRATION AND SECURITY
The CiM-25 has been designed to provide a high degree of administrative flexibility to
insure that each customer can configure the device (or network of devices) in a manner
that meets his/her security needs. The primary tools provided are the Host Allow List,
PING enable/disable, and three (3) level user login. Used as a group, these three tools
provide the CiM-25 with a very high degree of security. Each of these tools is described
in more detail below:
7
CiM-25/600L IP Enabled M&C Rev. 1
Operation CD/CIM25600L.IOM
3.2.1 SECURITY TOOLS
3.2.1.1 U
For the HTTP interfaces the CiM-25 provides three (3) levels of user login. The Telnet
interface, provides the first two (2) of the following levels. The highest level is the
Administrator login. This level allows 100% complete access to all controllable CiM25 and equipment parameters. The next level of user login is the Read/Write level. This
level allows access to all controllable equipment parameters but does not allow access to
the administration parameters of the CiM-25 itself. The lowest level of login is the Read Only login. As the name implies, this level allows the user to view, but not change, the
equipment parameters. Like the Read/Write level, this level does not allow access to the
administration parameters of the CiM-25.
The Name and Password factory defaults for the three level defined above are:
Administrator Level:
Name: admin
Password: 1234
Read/Write Level:
Name: opcenter
Password: 1234
Read Only Level:
Name: monitor
Password: 1234
SER LOGIN
The SNMP interface uses all three (3) levels of user login utilizing the SNMP v2c
(community string) method of security. The community string is the concatenation of the
name and password, i.e. admin1234, default admin community string.
3.2.1.2 HOST ALLOW LIST
The CiM-25 provides a high degree of security by allowing the Administrator to define a
list of IP addresses to which the CiM-25 will accept/respond to IP datagrams. The
Administrator can select up to six (6) individual allowable IP addresses or up to three (3)
allowable IP address ranges or any combination of individual and ranges that can be
defined by six fields (see HTTP interface below for further details). The host allow list is
applied to all three CiM-25 interfaces (HTTP, SNMP, and Telnet).
3.2.1.3 PING ENABLE/DISABLE
The final piece to the CiM-25 security design is the PING Enable/Disable feature. This
feature allows the Administrator to disable PING on an individual CiM-25. This in effect
conceals the CiM-25 from most hackers.
